the courtroom showdown in the iphone encryption case is canceled after the fbi reveals it may have a way to revealed the data without apple's help. i'm julie haener. >> i'm frank somerville. a major development in the tug- of-war between apple and the
10:01 pm
fbi over iphone encryption. ktvu's jana katsuyama is here to tell us about the fbi getting help from a quote, outside party. >> reporter: this is an interesting development. the request canceled tomorrow's hearing, was filed at the 11th hour. the court documents state this outside party came forward just yesterday. at monday's unveiling of new products, apple ceo tim cook defended his court battle with the government apparently unaware it would take a drastic turn hours later. >> we need to decide as a nation how much power the government should have over our data. and over our privacy. >> reporter: the government's unexpected filing stated that worldwide publicity on this case has prompted people outside the government, -- to contact the fbi offering suggestions for cracking the locked iphone of syed farook, the shooter in the
10:02 pm
san bernardino attack. prosecutors stated on march 20, an outside party demonstrated to the fbi a possible method for unlocking the iphone. >> this is a victory for apple. >> reporter: nate cardozo is with the electronic frontier foundation, more than one of a dozen companies that submitted documents supporting apple's position. >> the fbi chose this case not because they didn't want to try to get into it themselves, but because they wanted to set a legal precedent that they could ordered apple to break in for them. >> reporter: at issue was the security feature which erases iphone data if an incorrect password is entered too many times. a federal court had ordered apple under an old law called the all writs act to write software that would disable the feature. apple refused saying that would set a dangerous legal precedent and argued the fbi should find a way to hack around the security feature. >> the fact that apple took this position change things overnight.
10:03 pm
i think this is the easiest way for the fbi to try to solve this. >> definitely a retreat on the government's part. if that the fbi was planning to continue this fight, they would not have asked to take the hearing off calendar for tomorrow. the only reason why you ask to take a hearing off calendar unilaterally is because you are done, dropping the case. >> reporter: the fbi has not identified who the outside party is. the government asked to have a two-week extension until april 5 two testing and then file a status report with the court. apple says it's too soon to proclaim victory. if the fbi is unsuccessful using the suggestions from this outside party, both sides could end up right back in court. >> so this means potentially if the government can get into this home with that outside help they could get into any iphone? >> reporter: that's the question. obviously, hackers are able to try and exploit weaknesses. but apple just revealed a new update to the ios system and that patches all of those
10:04 pm
breaks so they are saying if they can get into this old version, it might not necessarily compromise phones out on the market. >> i also imagine the fbi has to be careful that they don't erase all of the data by making one wrong move. >> absolutely. >> reporter: that's why they need some time to be very careful as they go through because they don't want to try something and then inadvertently end up erasing the data. >> thank you. it was a big day for apple. tonight at 10:30 the new products unveiled today and why they may reflect an effort to attract newcomers -- new customers. the silicon valley is mourning the death of a tech giant tonight, intel announced that former ceo andy grove has died. grove was the first higher back in 1968 and he led intel's transformation into a widely recognized consumer brand. he became ceo in 1987 and served as chairman of the board until may 2005.

10:06 pm
shale broke loose like a projectile as the driver headed home on custody or highway, never saw it coming. >> a crash, he thinks he's getting hit head-on so he swerved to avoid what he thinks is another car. and he hits this tree over here. >> reporter: crashing into the tree wipes out the front of his honda and deploys his airbag. then he realizes what hit him. >> he looked over and saw a rock. >> an off-duty firemen stopped and called for help. >> reporter: everyone who saw the hole in the windshield and the size of the boulder couldn't believe his close call. >> it was a good-sized rock. it was a solid rock. very fortunate it hit the passenger side. >> reporter: no one in that seat. and the driver spared by inches or seconds. >> a little bit faster, might have gone through the driver's side. definitely enough to kill him if he had gotten hit. >> he came out of it just fine. no major injuries.
10:07 pm
he went home. >> reporter: the 64-year-old man was taken to the nearest emergency room in sebastopol. he had some chest pain from being hit by the airbag. >> i think the airbag was more of an issue for his injuries and the rock was itself. he's pretty lucky. >> reporter: lucky that his collision with the tree, while jarring, kept him from launching into this tree -- creek at 40 miles an hour. the accident happened as rain was moving through west sonoma county and this area is one of the bay area's whitest. >> no way you can anticipate that. it just happened. >> certainly other slopes are ready to give way. >> reporter: with a car passing this outcome was a fluke and about as fortunate as one could get. >> cazadero, this is the rainiest part of sonoma county. the only part that is more rainy that this would be boulder creek in santa cruz. >> reporter: that slope is about 40 feet high. the rock, about the size of a
10:08 pm
cinderblock. it took just the right trajectory but imagine if someone had been in that passenger seat. a different story. >> that guy is just so lucky. deborah, thank you. a flight attendant is on the run after a tsa screener found about 60 pounds of cocaine in her carry-on luggage. airport police say she kicked off her gucci shoes and bolted from a security checkpoint after she was selected for a random screening friday night. the jetblue flight attendant left her bags and the drugs behind. police have not been able to find her since. at lax pilots and flight crew are not subject to the same searches as passengers. the union for the airport police says the incident underscores why all airline employees should be fully screened. there are new developments tonight involving bart, the transit agency has rolled out a plan to move commuters down a section of troubled track. this as bart tries a new strategy to solve the phantom electrical problems. >> we're hoping this tool will help solve the problems. >> right now bart is testing

10:11 pm
snacks and apologies. >> i'd much rather have a clear communications and a candy bar at the end of the day. >> reporter: perhaps that confusion will ease, this was after all the first day of the shuttle train. while there were plenty of frustrated passengers, bart is calling this an improvement and riders should start to see trains become less crowded as more of those damaged cars are repaired and put back into service. they say today, 557 cars were available, that's 36 more than on friday. >> well, that is a step in the right direction. heather holmes, thank you. for now bart says it's shuttle service between north concord and pittsburg bay point will be during commute hours only. that means 4:00 a.m. to 9:00 a.m. for the morning commute, 3:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. for the evening commute. the train will run every 15 minutes. the bus bridge will be up during all other times. heroine addicts can get

her father. she left with big bear hugs from the firefighters. next year for her ninth birthday she is considering donating food to the homeless in lieu of presence. this whole idea was inspired by her classmates who did just that for his birthday. live in campbell, azenith smith, ktvu fox 2 is. we've got some nice weather to talk about. we had some clearing out there now but some scattered showers lingering. we got the rain today, that was great. heavy at times, then it back off a little bit here and there. now we're going into this widely scattered, almost done thing which means by tomorrow, lunch time it's over in terms of any like shower but don't worry, tomorrow morning will be dry. travel tomorrow across the country, eastern seaboard is set. not a big deal in terms of worrying about flight delays. chicago had -- i think you've
10:48 pm
got chicago, new york, boston, atlanta, everybody looking good tomorrow. traveling nationwide, the hubs are going to be doing fine. you see the rain up to the north of us, that system is moving into the pacific northwest. and you see the widely scattered showers, which are lingering throughout the state. those showers -- like this area out here just east of san jose south and -- south and east of 130, showers, reports of downpours, just a brief moment, santa rosa, brief heavy downpours, guerneville as well, some heavy downpours, that is how the whole night goes. then by tomorrow, just winding down to nothing. overnight scattered showers, maybe some for the morning. maybe a little bit wet on the roadway but i wouldn't change. overnight lows down into the mid-40s. 40s. and low 50s. san francisco tomorrow sprinkles , the model paints in a few sprinkles here, if you can see it. mostly cloudy, maybe a stray
10:49 pm
sprinkle and this is how the afternoon looks. a nice day and i might add that we are looking friday for quite a while. looking dry actually -- that is not correct -- it's going to be nice tomorrow. we are going to be dry for the next foreseeable future, certainly the rest of this month. so dry after this wet period, 59 in napa, 62 vallejo. tuesday highs. each day a little bit warmer so it's going to start feeling like spring. that's what i'm trying to say. temperatures by the end of the week make it into the mid-70s. so low 70s by saturday and sunday popping up a little more, showers pretty much a thing of the past by 10:00 tomorrow. and even then, what we do see in the morning will be very light, shouldn't be much of a big deal at all. >> drive for the rest of the month? >> looks like it. not very heartening in terms of water watchers because it is very dry right out to the end of the month, early april is the next chance for long-range models. >> thank you, bill. to the warriors come back to win after a tough loss over
10:50 pm
the weekend?

10:52 pm
mark is here with sports. a little bit of a struggle tonight but the warriors pulled it out and got the win. >> not that they need any excuses but think about it, they've played seven games in the last 11 nights. so it takes its toll. but no such thing as a losing streak when you are talking
10:53 pm
about the warriors. not once have they lost twice in succession this year. that little tidbit is what coach steve kerr called the thing he is most proud of so far. they had to get it out tonight in the land of 10,000 lakes, which you would figure would be a great place for the splash bloodies. they had plenty of support as the warriors always do. sloppy turnover here, leads to zach lavine, the nba dunk champion, you don't want him out on the open court. steph does wind up with 19 points, works the wizardry for that but only one of his two threes on the night. steph with a turnover, he had five. ricky rubio to tayshaun prince, perfectly done. they are putting the heat on. just before the half, you know what curry does, draymond green up on the offensive board at the buzzer, the warriors up three at intermission. and they close it out, and 8-0
10:54 pm
run in the third, draymond, sensational tonight, great drive down the lane, 24 points. this time steph did have 11 assists even though the shooting was not there. a beautiful pass for draymond. the warriors start to pull away but not quite -- livingston for draymond. they are great at the inbound plays. 109-104. 63-7. that was their 31st road game of the year. this is steph before the game, they had more people than any other game so far doing his thing, signing autographs, but steph is human, the last two games, 3-21 from three. in the fourth quarter against the spurs, 0-6. last couple games, only averaging 16.5 points a game. but he is human and he is probably a little tired. definitely cut him some slack.
10:55 pm
even though it was not dropping for him tonight. good news comes in twos tonight. spurs lose. the greg popovich not able to prevent it. look at the resurrection of jeremy lin for the hornets, the hornets trailed 28-7 after one quarter. but in the fourth, here they come, jeremy lin had 29 points tonight. the spurs wind up losing 91-88. so they are now for full games behind the warriors in the western conference. might be closer to the truth to say the stanford women didn't win tonight as much as they escaped by the skin of their teeth at maples, their home floor no less against south dakota state, tara vanderveer, she has seen it all in her 1000 games for stanford. jackrabbits led by two.
10:56 pm
lilli thompson drives in, she's fouled, it counts and hit the free throw. with 8.2 left, stanford up one. last gasp for the jackrabbits. i love that name. it doesn't go for them. they are beaten, the cargo moves on, they will play notre dame on friday. explanation time, a's beat the giants. but the giants sent us the highlights. the a's did not so even though a's when the ballgame, you will see no evidence of that. sorry. a's organization, start sending us the highlights. billy burns is robbed by angel pagan. hunter pence is having a pretty good spring once he took care of that achilles' heel. gone to let, jeff samardzija pitches six innings, gives up six runs, but as i said, the a's did win. apologies -- >> that cracks me up. what are you going to do? >> explanation out there.
10:57 pm
>> thanks for joining us tonight.

that is so freaking funny. [ laughing ] i know, right? what? dad just wrote another classic one. tell her. oh! i don't know about "classic," but here we go. "if you're looking for a two-story house, i'm your man. "i'll tell you one story before you buy it and then another story after." luke: no, you didn't!
